A months-old steak, leaking taps and unclean surfaces all contributed to a high-end Liverpool city centre hotel being hit with a one star hygiene rating.
The 30 James Street hotel was inspected by environmental health officers from Liverpool City Council on March 29 and was hit with the second lowest score for hygiene - meaning that major improvement is necessary.
The ECHO used Freedom of Information laws to receive a copy of the full inspection report. The inspection uncovered a host of issues across two kitchens that led to the poor rating.
